Hey X. I have a question. How are you compensating for the deflection your plate may have where the lower coil over mount is? I might be missing something but it looks like it is below the lowest fixed mounting point which means it becomes a lever. So as the suspension compresses the forceon the plate is also in torsion and could bend the bracket. Just what I'm seeing I might have missed something. Nice work I'm a big fan as I look at your threads religiously.
